The orange graph represents hours of daylight in Miami - that is because there is less variation in daylight the closer you get to the equator. Be sure to answer all questions. (1) Will you use the a sine of cosine function to model the data? Why? (2) Will you need any horizontal shift (that is, a phase shift) or vertical shift? Why? (3) What is the period and amplitude suggested by the data? Be sure to include calculations. (You can write the "pi" for the symbol rn.) Explain your reasoning below. (15 points) Answer below. On the next page you will be asked to enter the actual equation. 24 16 -8 24 time (months) 8 16 daylight (hours) Write an equation to represent the number of hours of daylight as a function of time (in months) for Miami. (10 points) Note: As with the covid model, your model will not be an exact match. Adjust the numbers you entered for phase shift, amplitude, and the horizontal shift. 16 -8- 8 16 24 time (months) daylight (hours) 24 The orange graph represents hours of daylight in Miami - that is because there is less variation in daylight the closer you get to the equator.
